Show J 2 H Salt Lake Tribune, Sunday, August Tfce 8, 1982 How to choose right profession to perform surgery is a priyie example of not being qualified for something no matter how badly you would like to do it. Drive Is Important Im not suggesting that ones aptitude for a certain job is the only important criteria in choosing a career, Mr. Gale said. Drive, family pressure, financial background all are important. Many skills are innate but many can be learned. Judy Magid Tribune lifestyle Writer By Doctor, lawyer, tinker, tailor, merchant, fanner, soldier, sailor. . . With more than 25,000 occupations from which to choose, 70 percent of the American work force is (liftsauMied with what it does, according to Carry Gale, president and executive director of Career Aptitude Testing, Ltd., Scottsdale, Ariz. "I believe that's because most people do not choose, emphasize choose, their professions, he says. Most people wait to fall into a career. I dont think thats a good idea. Barry and Linda Gale, authors of Discover What Youre Best At (Simon and Schuster, 1982, $8.95), g have developed what they feel is the best system available to help people find their strengths and weaknesses. Interests and Aptitude Other aptitude tests are directed toward what your interests are, Mr. Gale said. This system tests your abilities and your potential. The tests are designed to show you what youre good at doing, in what field you can best succeed, so that you can make intelligent career choices. The tests contained in Discover What Youre Best At include testing your aptitude in the fields of business, clerical work, working with numbers, mechanics, logic and social skills. Mr. Gale claims that 90 percent of the more than 25,000 possible occupations are made of one, two or three of these aptitudes. Many times young people are stuck in the mold of doctor, lawyer, engineer, and dont realize that there are a lot of choices out there. As a matter of fact, approximately 2,000 occupations are added to the list every year, he continued. In a way, many school systems combat the . But to make intelligent choices, whether you are beginning a career, changing a career or reentering the work force, you have to know what you have going for you. It took Mr. Gale 12 years to develop the career testing system. He claims he cant take the tests because he created them and knows all the answers. I did take an aptitude test once in high school," he admits. It suggested I could be a social studies teacher, a policeman or a I turned out to be director of guidance for a school system, he muses. In a way, the test was right. I learned how to ramble like a social studies teacher, listen like a clergyman and put my foot down like a policeman.
